How the Tesla Model 3 Long Range RWD compares to similar EVs on battery, range, home charging speed and V2X capability.
Model 3 Long Range RWD
Tesla CCS
The longest-range Model 3 variant delivers genuine long-distance capability, though it still lacks the vehicle-to-home tech that rivals now offer.
IONIQ 6 Long Range RWD
Hyundai CCS
Similar long-range saloon with V2L included and 800V ultra-rapid charging.
EV6 Long Range RWD
Kia CCS
Comparable range, V2L support, and available with a higher tow rating.
Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor
Polestar CCS
Scandinavian saloon rival with a premium interior and Android Automotive.
The Long Range RWD is rated at 390 miles WLTP, versus 305 miles for the Standard Range, based on the figures in this specification. The larger 75kWh usable battery accounts for the difference. Real-world range will be lower for both, particularly in winter.
No. Like all current UK Teslas, the Long Range RWD does not support V2L, V2H, or V2G. If powering appliances or exporting to the grid matters to you, consider the Hyundai Ioniq 5 or Kia EV6, which include V2L as standard.
Based on its 250kW maximum DC acceptance, the battery is expected to charge from 10% to 80% in approximately 25 minutes at a compatible Supercharger. The Supercharger network has over 1,000 connectors across the UK.
Yes. The 4% BIK rate for 2026-27 makes it one of the most tax-efficient options at this price point. Over a typical three-year contract, the tax saving versus a petrol equivalent can offset a substantial portion of the price difference.
